Real Weddings Gallery Perkins + Wickliffe

Location: Virginia |  Color: Multi

Alright, y’all. I know we feature a lot of Southern goodness around these parts, but this wedding? This wedding might actually come out on top as THE MOST Southern wedding we’ve ever featured. I know that’s a pretty big claim, so let’s run down the checklist, shall we? Perkins + Wickliffe had… Large guest list? 375+ Large bridal party? 32, if you include both sides. Adorable children? Yes, and they rang bells down the aisle! Cowboy boots, wildflower bouquets, a wedding gown with lace, bow ties, bluegrass music at the ceremony, a farm venue? Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, and yes, and trust me, that’s just the tip of the iceberg. While Perkins + Wickliffe’s ceremony alone might have qualified for most Southern, their reception takes it to another level and is just further proof that Southerners can throw a party the good ole’ fashioned way — chock full of traditions, love and fun. Like Perkins said, “it was either go big or elope!” The reception at the bride’s parents’ home included a cake pull (for all 15 bridesmaids and the mother of the bride, y’all!), a raw bar including wahoo that the bride and groom caught themselves, cowboy hats and tambourines, and toasting goblets hand blown by a good friend of the newlyweds. The tire swing, drink koozies and hay are just the icing on the cake! We can’t thank Jodi Miller Photography enough for sharing!
